    Ignore this one. The last thing you want to do is to end up with a sexual fetish about books

    I'll add; find a spot where you can study without interruption. Being away from distractions helps me immensely.

    A few things that help me study:

    write down the time your gonna work, even if its in 5mins, so like, 10am-10.30 wtc. just so you brain gets ready to learn at that time, so you dont have 5-10mins trying to motivate yourself to work while playing mtw or whatever

    work out the best way you work individually, ie. do you learn better by reading or writing etc. but also vary occasionally

    I'v never liked working in silence, so usually have radio on, or even work away from desk, in cafe's etc.

    Unplug the Internet.

    Are there any past papers you can practice on? For my exams I just download a couple of them, print them out, do the questions and see what areas I need to improve.

    I always study at my desk with the computer. That way I quickly browse the forums every once in a while, and taking short but fairly frequent breaks mean that I can study efficiently for long periods of time.

    EDIT: Sorry to contradict half the other posts!

    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
